Kedar Gauri Temple Overview
Regarded as one of the eight Astasambhu temples in Bhubaneshwar, the temple is devoted to Lord Shiva and his wife, Goddess Gauri, making it one of the prominent Tourist places in Bhubaneshwar. It was built by King Lalatendu Kesari in commemoration of Kedar and Gauri, an ill fated couple, believed to have eloped against the wishes of their community. 
The outer walls of the temple are decorated with beautiful sculptures.

The temple also houses two different ponds within its precincts which are believed to hold sacred powers that can heal a man from the mortal cycle of life and death, while a woman can overcome infertility issues by taking a dip in these waters. Today, couples visit the temple to pray for a blissful married life. In the month of May, an event is hosted in the temple, marking the marriage of Lord Lingaraja with Parvati.
